I had the privilege of teaching many environmental auditing courses with Ridge and always had the greatest respect for him and enjoyed the time I spent with him. He was a special person. I just learned of his passing in going through my contacts list. My thoughts go out to his family during this holiday season.

Memories of fun Charades at the Hall House in Stony Creek remind us of the zeal and zest with which Ridge and Jill enjoyed family life. Raking leaves or pick up soccer was an opportunity to enthusiastically live large. We miss you Ridge and love you for your spark and spirit directed to bettering the planet!
